Hey looking for good advice and thoughts on my setup before i drop start germinating my seeds!! Thanks for the advice or comments.

I changed from a 315W HPS to 305w MARS Hydro TSW 2000. I have a 3X3X6 tent with carbon filter and a couple of fans. I’m did 4 reg photoperiods last time and filled the tent so this time I’m still only going to do 4 Autos- Cookies and Cream. plan on using ProMix HP
in 5 Gal fabric pots and using 1/4 strength of Fox Farm nutrients with a SCROG i built for the tent. Any advice or comments are appreciated!!

Sounds like a pretty decent setup to me. Keep us posted on how it goes. Where did you get your seeds from?

I have four autos going at the moment, about 3 1/2weeks old. This is also
my first time using LEDs. Word of warning, follow the manual for setting the distance and be a little careful at first. I nearly toasted my seedlings because I tried to sneak the LED too close too early.

Good luck!

Thanks man, learned a lot from that first grow and yah I’m hoping the LEDs help lower my tent temp as that other light had me in the mid to high 80s for the whole first grow.

thanks for the tip man! And the seeds are Nukeheadz. And will def will watch the distance!!

Hey guys how do you think they’re doing for 5 days?! Sadly one of the seedlings didn’t make it, but i am going to start another auto and germinate and get it in the fourth pot.
RH is a little low in the 35-45, getting a humidifier. But temp is 78-82 and I’m watering only 30 mL a day of pH’ed water and misting the top a little with pH’ed water. Probably will start 1/4 of Fox Farm nutes when they are 2 weeks old.

I'll get pics so you can compare. I got a mix pack from Ilovegrowingmarijuana. Amnesia haze, Northern Lights, and Blueberry. My first attempt was crap I didnt invest into proper medium, overwater, under nutrients first weeks, and lights were off.

My second attempt went only with two autos and did all the necessary adjustments so just anxiously waiting now to see if I got it down.

What do you guys think? This is 15 days so far, three cookies and cream autos. One guy seems a little slower but overall i feel they are healthy but i do need to increase the humidity as it’s sitting low at 35%

I’m at day 15 with white widow autoflowers from ILGM and they look almost exactly like this in terms of progress. I actually feel a lot more confident now that I’ve seen yours, hope everything’s progressing well!

Looks good bro. How much are you watering them? I'm still winging it on the soil technique. We are about the same grow times with our plants. Cant wait to see our end results good luck!

So i check the first 2-3 inches as what I’ve learned with the Promix HP it holds on to water really well, so I wait till the Fabric pots are lighter And soil is drier. Ends up being about 3-4 times a week depending on the soil, you?
